Re: johnson 40

These symtoms usually indicate poor fuel distribution.If you dont know the motors<br />history go through the fuel system from tank to carb.The problem is most likely a gummed up or dirty carb be sure all passages and jets are clear<br />and float is adjusted correctly and operating <br />smoothly.<br /> Be sure system is clean or it could happen again.
